Re: Re: Re: unless....else

Unless I am mistaken you are trying to show that unless the first condition is false or that the second considition is false, then print the stuff in the else statement(kind of akin to an if/elsif/else construct, but for unless). At least that is the jist of what I got from your post (forgive me if I am wrong, but want to make sure that no one is led astray here).

Anyhow the reason WHAT?!!! is printed is not because neither of the unless conditions were false (and hence executed), but because the second statement's condition (i.e. unless( 2 ){ .. } ), was true (and not executed), and thus the else that follows is executed. For example:

use strict;
use warnings;

my $foo = 1;
my $bar = 2;
my $baz = 3;

unless ( $foo == $bar ) { print "TEST 1\n"}
unless ( $foo != $baz ) { print "TEST 2\n" }
else  { print "TEST 3\n"}

will print both "TEST 1" and "TEST 3"
